The climate's challenges and answers in one picture. Beznar reservoir in Andalucia, just starting to recover from drought conditions, with the HEP dam in the background, and beyond that, some of Andalusia's many, many wind turbines. #photography

Lemons - one of the most prevalent sights in this part of Andalucia - on a tree with the Sierra Nevada in the background. The only sunny day of my visit, on the morning before I left. So it goes. #photography #travel

Mood lighting signals sunrise on a 787-10 on the way to Amsterdam. The windows remain tinted letting no light in from the outside. It's a pretty pleasant cabin if you are able to sleep on planes. #Photography #aviation

A Delta A330-900 waits for me at E pier on a gloomy AMS morning, for the 7hr 22min flight to JFK. The A330 and A350 have this black eyeliner around the flight deck windows; it's very distinctive. #photography #Aviation

From AMS-AGP last week, somewhere over Spain. Transavia (the Dutch word for 'late', apparently) 737-800. #Photography #Aviation

An A330 NEO for this flight. Another brand new aircraft. The transatlantic legs have all been on shiny new stuff. WiFi not working on this one though. Shame I cannot do any of the work I was totally planning on doing. 😉

When I get home I am going to purchase a clock and send it to Transavia. Apparently they have not heard of them.

Amsterdam is generally a very well thought out airport. Been through here a few times now. The toilets are always spotless and unlike JFK and Newark not spaced 5 miles apart.

Early at AMS for my flight to New York, and onwards to home. This journey started with a late flight from Spain and a little cabin in Schipol, which was fun, if not exactly cheap.

I'm watching Pru Leith on the telly at my dad's and she just used the word 'hack' when she meant 'tip'. I am unusually irritated by this.

Coordinating the return of my missing baggage to an address in Rural Spain is fun. Curiously, the local habit is to use WhatsApp for everything.

An evening meal in a very blue and Andalucia

I made it to Spain. My luggage did not.

Transavia and the voyage to punctuality (this film will disappoint)

I like the nightime views and your ability to reduce the tint is limited. Progress? I don't know.

A strange thing with the 787 electrically tinted windows is they are kept dark well beyond sunrise, the cabin lighting instead slowly warming in colour. We were over Ireland I and I was so confused why it was pitch black outside.

Waiting in Schipol for my flight. Got over the Atlantic in 6.5hrs which is up there for the quickest I have done it. Eastbound gets some good Tailwinds. Worst was AMS > ATL 2 years ago at over 9 hours.

Boarding my flight at JFK they did not need any documents despite asking us to have them ready. All photo recognition ' which actually bothers me.
